Abstract

The article presents information on social work and social relations. Whenever social work educators meet, particularly as they did recently at the XVIth International Congress of Schools of Social Work in the Hague, this question is hotly debated. Agology is defined as the science of intentional planning of change in human beings and social relations. The term sociology is derived from the Greek verb ago, described as a word of many meanings. Agology is not applied sociology or even applied social science. Models of Intervention and social techniques are derived, from psychology, sociology, philosophy, and ethics and are tested as theories of practice.
